Hollywood science advice

Hollywood star Nicole Kidman and a host of other celebrities have been criticised by scientists for spruiking the benefits of various remedies without having solid evidence to support them.

The Aussie actress along with fellow Oscar winner Gwyneth Paltrow and fashion designer Stella McCartney are among those targeted for making claims about the benefits of everything from certain brain-based workouts to face creams and what to eat.

Wow. I'm in complete disbelief. I would have sworn anybody married to Tom Cruise was a genius. And surely naming your kid "Apple" is a smart move?

i don't care what you say, i'd still WRECK Nikkers given half the chance (and about 30 seconds alone with her in a dark broom closet), and then I'd line up to have a lash at Kylie as well. I dont know if Kylie has endorsed any stupid products, other than her cds, though...
